About Moyako Word Search
Moyako Word Search hides a themed list of words inside a grid of letters.
Words can run across, down or diagonally — and, on the harder grids,
backwards too. You find each one by dragging across its letters, or by
tapping the first and last letter. Five difficulty tiers set the grid size
and the word count, from a gentle 7×7 with five words up to a busy 14×14
with twelve. A round takes about two to five minutes, and every grid you
clear feeds your daily streak and leaderboard rank.
How to Play
- Pick a difficulty tier and press Start Word Search.
- Read the word list beside the grid — those are the words hidden inside it.
- Drag across a word from its first letter to its last, or tap the first letter then the last. Words sit in a straight line: across, down or diagonal.
- A correct selection locks in colour and strikes the word off the list. A wrong one simply clears — there is no penalty for trying.
- Find every word on the list to finish the grid. Faster finishes score higher.
Skills Used
- Vocabulary — drawing on the words you know to find a fit.
- Attention — holding focus while you scan a busy field of letters.
- Pattern — spotting repeating shapes and sequences on the board.
Tips
- Scan one row or column at a time rather than letting your eyes jump around the whole grid.
- Hunt for a word's first letter, then check the eight directions leading out of it.
- On the harder tiers, remember words can run backwards and on diagonals — read each line both ways.
- Knock out the short words first; they clear the list quickly.
